SUDDEN DEATH - Miss Delia GERRY, a young woman residing in the family of W. C. DRYER, at Victor, was found dead in the chamber of the house, on Monday forenoon, at about half past 11 o'clock. She had gone up stairs from the purpose of sweeping the rooms, and was discovered some half an hour afterwards, lying on the floor, in an insensible state. All efforts to resuscitate her, proved unavailing. Her health for the past year had been rather poor, though no apprehensions were entertained by her friends, and during the forenoon of Monday she had attended to her accustomed work, and appeared as well and cheerful as usual. She is supposed to have died from a disease of the heart. [Canandaigua Rep.]
